Abstract
Abstract:
Internet of Things (IoT) devices play a huge role in
our lives today, and this constant connectivity will
continue to grow. As these products are becoming
an increasingly more important part of our homes,
it is interesting to explore the design of them. This
thought of interest led to a collaboration with Minut
AB and the development of their product called
Point. In order for these products to function in a
design harmony in ones home, a vision for future
IoT devices was needed. A vision where the consumers
should feel trust in the products and not
overwhelmed by their appearance. This research

overwhelmed by their appearance. This research
will lay the foundations of the next generation Point
alarm, and further develops its form, function and
interaction experience.

This design process has brought a new generation
of the Point home alarm system, where the product
has been better adapted for the new target group:
apartment residents in urban cities in Sweden.
There are still details left to be solved before a
launch. However a clear concept and vision of future
IOT products has been developed to a level
where it’s easy for the company to continue the
work. (Less)
